LIBRARY_PATH is set accordingly based on the host
Until now, GCC wouldn't build properly on Debian-based operating systems because `ld' needed to link with several necessary C library features like `crti.o' and `crtn.o' (this is an `ld' issue, not GCC). The solution is to add the directory containing them to `LIBRARY_PATH'. In the previous commit, I actually searched for these files, but while testing on another system, I noticed that it can be problematic (other architectures may exist). With this commit, we are actually finding the build architecture of the running GCC (which is the same as the `ld') and using that to fix a fixed directory to `LIBRARY_PATH'.
